Chapter 140 Why Was the Strongest Creature on Earth Captured?
Amid Yamato's nervousness and Kaido's expectations, Lu Li spoke, "What I want to say is very simple, that is, although you don't admit it, you are still a respected and status person in the Beast Pirates." , so they call you Young Master and it’s not easy to do anything to you.”
Lu Li put the quarried stones into the mine cart and continued, "And you know your status in your heart and subconsciously, so you scold the alpaca of course, because you know that after you speak, he will There will be no further pursuit.”
Yamato was stunned for a moment when she heard this. She had no idea that Lu Li could involve herself in such a troublesome topic just by helping her.
But that's how people are. As long as someone else says something, you can't help but think about it. Yamato also subconsciously thinks about what he just said.
‘Don’t do anything to my friends! ’
This sentence structure ended the conflict, and it seemed to contain a certain premise.
That is, why does she think that after she said Lu Li was her friend, Yangtuo should not continue to be violent?
She seemed to have unconsciously placed herself in a high position where she could command alpacas, but she was clearly Kozuki Oden, and she shouldn't be able to command the overseer of the Beasts Pirates.
"No...no, I didn't think much about it at the time. I just didn't want to see Brother Lu get hurt. Of course I would be angry when I saw him being disrespectful and violent towards my friends."
Yamato said, but his eyes were not very firm, and there was a little self-doubt.
When Lu Li saw this, he didn't talk about the incident just now, because he also knew that Yamato's behavior at that time had two sides. Even if she was not Kaido's daughter, she would have stopped her and said roughly the same thing.
Because Yamato really valued him, his first friend in sixteen years, Yamato's behavior could be explained by pure anger.
"I'm very happy to hear what Yamato said, but when I was mining just now, I thought of another problem."
Lu Li said with a smile.
Yamato shivered when Lu Li said the word "problem", and said with a wry smile: "Brother Lu, can we honestly mine? Or you can tell me the story outside, don't talk about the problem."
Lu Li saw that Yamato was very resistant, so he could only comfort him, "I have thought of it all, so let me tell you. After I finish speaking, I will tell you a story. This time I will tell you the myths and legends of my hometown."
Hearing that there was a story to listen to, it was a myth and legend from his friend's hometown. Yamato was very interested, so he nodded, "Brother Lu, tell me."
Lu Lixin said that Yamato was quite easy to coax. After all, she was only a sixteen-year-old girl. He said, "I heard you say before that after challenging Kaido, he would be imprisoned every time he failed. Most of them This is all happening, and I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but I feel like this might be Kaido fulfilling your wish.”
"Huh? Kaido is fulfilling my wish? What are you talking about, Brother Lu?"
Yamato's face was full of questions. This time, she felt that Lu Li would never let her doubt himself again.
"Didn't you tell me about your idol's deeds before? After Kozuki Oden made a mistake at the age of ten, he was imprisoned in a quarry and later became the head mason. Isn't this giving you a chance to follow the path of your idol? After all, you call yourself Kozuki Oden."
Lu Li said with a smile.
"Huh? Is there such a thing?"
Yamato was stunned when he heard this, and then came back to his senses, "It seems so. Why didn't I think about it before? I am Kozuki Oden. I should be the head masonry worker here. How can I just dig mines!?"
Obviously, the error her brain circuit detected was that she did not follow Kozuki Oden's behavior pattern, and she felt very regretful.
At this time, Kaido, who was watching the live broadcast on Ghost Island, also had a strange expression, "I didn't think about it that way..."
He threw Yamato into Tudon Prison simply because there were only two prisons in Wano, one was in the city. If he wanted to imprison him there, he might as well imprison Yamato directly on Onigashima.
Based on the principle of out of sight, out of mind, and the quarry can also be used for labor reform, Utodon Prison has almost become Kaido's only choice. He threw Yamato over and had no intention of letting his daughter follow the idol path.
"It doesn't matter what you think. The important thing is to see what Yamato thinks at this moment."
Maria said with a smile on the side, "I feel like Yamato is about to fall into a trap again."
Kaido's mind was not spinning so fast. In order not to show his stupidity, he could only keep his mouth shut and continue reading.
At this time, in Tudon Prison, Lu Li said: "Maybe I'm overthinking it, but objectively speaking, Kaido did cooperate with your role-playing game, and he tried his best, but I think his doing so will make him You just went astray."
One of Yamato's cheeks bulged slightly, expressing her dissatisfaction, "What does it mean to be wrong? Mitsuki Oden is..."
"A good hero, a great hero, right?"
Lu Li answered, "A hero who robs civilian girls?"
Yamato was suddenly stuck. She thought about it all night last night, but she still couldn't figure out why her idol Kozuki Oden did such a bad thing. Obviously everything the idol did should be right.
But after Lu Li used her father as an example, she realized that it was indeed wrong behavior, and could even be said to be animal behavior.
"Continuing to talk about the problems in this prison, Yamato, you said that Kaido abused you so much that you hid here and there and often didn't have enough to eat. Just now you said that the food in Tudon Prison is good and you often come here to make ends meet, so you have I have never thought about why Kaido locked you here instead of starving you on the ghost island?"
Lu Li's question was a blow to his soul, which stunned Yamato again.
Obviously she hadn't figured out the question just now, but the new question made her distressed again.
To be honest, starvation was the worst when she first called herself Kozuki Oden. At that time, her father had put her in solitary confinement several times and would not let others give her food.
Later, a member of the pirate group who kindly gave him food was executed for disobeying Kaido's orders.
However, after about a year, the situation got better. After she turned eleven, she began to challenge Kaido one after another. Every time she failed, she was imprisoned in Rabbit Prison. I can have a full meal.
It was also during those years that her body grew rapidly and she soon became taller, allowing her to fight Kaido for longer.
"You...what do you want to say?"
Yamato asked hesitantly. In fact, she had already vaguely sensed the answer in her heart.
"Although it's just an inference, I feel that Kaido may have thought that you were growing up and couldn't starve every day, so he sent you to Tudon Prison because he knew that with your strength, you could survive here Well fed.”
Lu Li analyzed seriously.
He was not just talking nonsense. Referring to Kaido's life experience, he felt that this was very possible.
After all, when Kaido was eleven or twelve years old, he often took the initiative to be caught by the navy because he didn't have enough to eat, and then escaped from prison after eating on the warship...
Therefore, with Kaido's brain circuit, he is very likely to make this arrangement for Yamato so that Yamato can eat well and grow healthy.
This feeling is very strange. From a normal world view, it is a bit like after a father-daughter quarrel, the daughter refuses to eat and is so angry that she is unwilling to give in. However, the father is still afraid that his daughter will be hungry, so he secretly talks about it in a roundabout way. Put more money in my daughter's piggy bank.
The heartless daughter refused to eat at home, but she couldn't bear the hunger so she went out to eat. She found that there was more money in the piggy bank. She thought she had saved well these days, but she didn't know that it was all due to her father's good intentions.
Of course, the situation between Kaido and Yamato is more complicated and awkward, and the way to find food for their daughter is more hard-core.
It is estimated that in Kaido's mind, prison is a restaurant, and it is right to send his daughter there. After all, this is how he grew up and became stronger.
At this time, on the other side of the ghost island, Black Maria's eyes were crooked, her smile couldn't be hidden, and she looked at Kaido, "Is that so?"
Kaido turned his head slightly to prevent Black Maria from seeing the expression on his dark face clearly, "It's all this kid's imagination. I just want to teach Yamato a lesson. This is the rule of rabbit don."
"Oh~ That means he is overthinking."
Black Maria's voice was long and her face was filled with a smile. She didn't expect that her governor had such a delicate side in her heart.
Even a careful woman like her had never thought of this before. She simply thought that Kaido wanted to re-educate Yamato.
Kaido looked at the picture on the screen with a dark face, looking forward to Yamato's reaction.
At this time, Yamato struggled with the expression on his face, "No way... that bastard dad would actually... consider such a thing? I thought..."
"You think it's your idol Oden's spirit in heaven that protects you and allows you to have enough to eat?"
Lu Li answered and said teasingly.
Yamato frowned, "I wouldn't say that..."
At this point, she was stunned again, because she realized that if she were herself a few days ago, she would definitely say this and think so.
What was wrong with him? He actually refuted Lu Li in the first place, which was equivalent to refuting his idol and questioning his identity as Kozuki Oden.
"In short, a rough guy like my father Kaido couldn't have thought so carefully about asking me to use the prison as a cafeteria or something. He wouldn't have used such roundabout ways to make me eat!"
Yamato said angrily.
"Oh? Then I want to ask you, do you really know what kind of person Kaido is?"
Lu Li asked with a smile, "You know so much about Kozuki Oden, who was originally a stranger, but you don't seem to know your biological father very well."
Yamato looked unhappy, "Of course I understand, Kaido is my Kozuki Oden's biggest enemy. As a samurai, of course I must understand my enemy in order to defeat him."
"Really? Then let me ask you, do you know what your father went through before coming to Wano Country? Do you know what legends are spread on the sea?"
Lu Li asked.
"Huh? How old was I when he brought me to Wano Country? I couldn't remember anything. How could I possibly know his past affairs?"
Yamato looked at Lu Li in confusion, "Is it possible that you know?"
"It's weird if you don't know. Your father is one of the Four Emperors, a famous figure in this sea. Why don't you ask any member of the Beast Pirates or the top brass of Wano Country, they will know about him. famous deeds.”
Lu Li is not fooling Yamato. He dare not tell the people of Wano, but of course the people of the Beast Pirates know the legend of Kaido, otherwise they would not worship Kaido and join him. And the pirates and adventures in the new world Celebrities are even more familiar with the deeds of people like Kaido, who is far more famous than Kozuki Oden.
He continued: "As a pirate, Kaido was arrested 18 times when he challenged the navy alone. He was tortured more than a thousand times and sentenced to death a full 40 times. But even if he was hanged, the chain would be broken. Even if he was pulled to the guillotine, the guillotine could be shattered. Even if he was stabbed with a spear, the spear would break. As many as nine huge prison ships were sunk by him. No one has ever been able to kill him, not even him. The same goes for myself."
He briefly summarized Kaido's achievements, and then pointed out the key points, "There is a saying circulating in the sea that Kaido is the strongest creature on the surface. Why was the strongest creature on the surface captured so easily?"
Yamato's heart was in turmoil at this time. This was the first time she heard about her father's achievements when he was young. This feeling was very strange. At that time, she was not born yet, but her father was already active on the sea.
The narration of Lu Li's words also shocked her. Is her father so strong?
"Why? Since it can be caught, it can't be said to be the strongest creature, right?"
Yamato asked confused.
"The story going around the sea is that he was arrested on purpose because he was hungry."
Lu Li looked into Yamato's eyes, then turned around and pushed the cart full of ore towards the place where he exchanged food stamps. "I'm hungry. I'm going to have breakfast first."
